BIG is in the world and it is an exciting time. We jump up and down at the daily influx of subscriptions and share long distance grinning at the thought of the BIG pages in the hands of so many curious and creative kids. Luca looks bemused when I show him this very lovely post and says “who is that mum?” meanwhile Twyla demands to know where Lilly is taking all of her magazines with each batch that flies out the door.

We navigate this next BIG phase like ships in the night and crossover in the 3hour time difference to respond to emails that fly in like wildfire, land the mags to stockists, laugh at fabulous moments lost in translation, prepare our first ever BAS, and work on the pagination for the next edition (and yes, 12 months ago – we had to google that term too!) It feels like we are finally at the beginning!
